Hello KZbin family! Such an emotional 10 days for our family. Maybe I should have waited to record this video until I had more time to process everything, but my channel is my way of expressing myself, so here are my raw and true thoughts and feelings regarding our first IN HOME visit with Jackson.
I almost didn't make this video in fear of mumbling through without clearly articulating my thoughts and to be honest there is a little bit of FEAR. The internet can be a VERY mean place...and I fear the judgement and hateful comments that may come from my recap. However, I would challenge anyone that has a hateful comment to make...until you've walked in our shoes and dealt with what we just dealt with from sun up to sun down for 10 days...do not minimize what we are feeling & don't hate...cuz I'll just delete your comments and carry on, ain't nobody got time for that!
Our hearts are in the right place and this has been so hard on every single one of us. At the end of the day, I have no doubt in my heart, that we've made the right decision.
As you all know, we've been working on adopting Jackson for about a year and a half. To our surprise & disappointment, this visit didn't go anything as we had expected.
I'm saddened by the system, I'm saddened by the lost children that will never be given a true fighting chance at life, at a family...true permanency. Over medicated, with ZERO guidance as to how to live in a home environment, it's heart-breaking.
I feel like we were set up for failure. Most of all, I feel that Jackson was/is set up for failure. There were very significant issues that were NOT disclosed to us prior to this visit and I think that maybe if they had been...things could've been handled differently.
Thanks for hanging out with me today friends...Tina is signing out, with one more glass of wine and a prayer as I end this long day...
